Genesis 21:16-19 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

¹⁶Then she went off and sat down nearby, about a bowshot away, for she said, “I cannot bear to watch the boy die!” And as she sat nearby, she lifted up her voice and wept.

          17Then God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven, “What is wrong, Hagar? Do not be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he lies.
          18Get up, lift up the boy, and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.”
          19Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. So she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
